A Low developing in Coral Sea

Queensland, which is still battling wild bushfires, could cop more horrendous weather with its first tropical cyclone of the year. Weather website Higgins Storms Chasing said a low developing in the Pacific, off the north east coast of Queensland, could develop into a cyclone next week. “If it does, it will become the first cyclone to develop in Australia for the 2018-19 seasons,” The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) said, in an average year, 10-13 tropical cyclones brew in the waters around Australia, four of which make landfall.
